The Nat Turner story gets picked up and its about a slave revolt where the slaves do it for themselves. No white person had to lead them or instruct them or give tacit permission for them to do it and people lose their minds! WHY DO WE HAVE TO KEEP BRINGING BACK SLAVERY!! THIS IS NOT GOING TO DO ANY GOOD FOR RACE RELATIONS TODAY!! BLAH BLAH...

FSOJ comes out about a white man leading a revolt during the slave era and nearly NO ONE comments about how its yet another slave story or how it re opens old wounds etc etc..

BLACK MAN LEADS AN ARMED REVOLT = PROBLEMS FOR AMERICA
WHITE MAN LEADS AN ARMED REVOLT = GOOD SOLID STORYTELLING.

I see how this goes now....

I don't have problem either. BOAN is just a lower budget movie with less exposure.

Bump for this thread back to the top so we can all laugh at the OP's original assertion that white epople are scared of this movie's release.

No.

How is that Hillary landslide working out for you too, OP?
